The Schrödinger equation on a compact manifold : Strichartz estimates and applications

Nicolas Burq, Patrick Gérard, Nikolay Tzvetkov (2001)

Journées équations aux dérivées partielles

We prove Strichartz estimates with fractional loss of derivatives for the Schrödinger equation on any riemannian compact manifold. As a consequence we infer global existence results for the Cauchy problem of nonlinear Schrödinger equations on surfaces in the case of defocusing polynomial nonlinearities, and on three-manifolds in the case of quadratic nonlinearities. We also discuss the optimality of these Strichartz estimates on spheres.

The simple layer potential for the biharmonic equation in n variables

Alberto Cialdea (1991)

Atti della Accademia Nazionale dei Lincei. Classe di Scienze Fisiche, Matematiche e Naturali. Rendiconti Lincei. Matematica e Applicazioni

A theory of the «simple layer potential» for the classical biharmonic problem in R n is worked out. This hinges on the study of a new class of singular integral operators, each of them trasforming a vector with n scalar components into a vector whose components are n differential forms of degree one.

The solution of Kato's conjecture (after Auscher, Hofmann, Lacey, McIntosh and Tchamitchian)

Philippe Tchamitchian (2001)

Journées équations aux dérivées partielles

Kato’s conjecture, stating that the domain of the square root of any accretive operator L = - div ( A ) with bounded measurable coefficients in n is the Sobolev space H 1 ( n ) , i.e. the domain of the underlying sesquilinear form, has recently been obtained by Auscher, Hofmann, Lacey, McIntosh and the author. These notes present the result and explain the strategy of proof.

The solution of the Kato problem in two dimensions.

Steve Hofmann, Alan McIntosh (2002)

Publicacions Matemàtiques

We solve, in two dimensions, the "square root problem of Kato". That is, for L ≡ -div (A(x)∇), where A(x) is a 2 x 2 accretive matrix of bounded measurable complex coefficients, we prove that L1/2: L12(R2) → L2(R2).[Proceedings of the 6th International Conference on Harmonic Analysis and Partial Differential Equations, El Escorial (Madrid), 2002].

The spectrum of Schrödinger operators with random δ magnetic fields

Takuya Mine, Yuji Nomura (2009)

Annales de l’institut Fourier

We shall consider the Schrödinger operators on 2 with the magnetic field given by a nonnegative constant field plus random δ magnetic fields of the Anderson type or of the Poisson-Anderson type. We shall investigate the spectrum of these operators by the method of the admissible potentials by Kirsch-Martinelli. Moreover, we shall prove the lower Landau levels are infinitely degenerated eigenvalues when the constant field is sufficiently large, by estimating the growth order of the eigenfunctions...

The speed of propagation for KPP type problems. I: Periodic framework

Henry Berestycki, François Hamel, Nikolai Nadirashvili (2005)

Journal of the European Mathematical Society

This paper is devoted to some nonlinear propagation phenomena in periodic and more general domains, for reaction-diffusion equations with Kolmogorov–Petrovsky–Piskunov (KPP) type nonlinearities. The case of periodic domains with periodic underlying excitable media is a follow-up of the article [7]. It is proved that the minimal speed of pulsating fronts is given by a variational formula involving linear eigenvalue problems. Some consequences concerning the influence of the geometry of the domain,...
